You get two births two weeks in a row because I shot them both on the SAME DAY! Within 15 minutes of each other. Not even kidding. Luckily they were both in the same hospital, so I was "Father of the Bride" -ing up and down the hall to each family. I'm sure the nurses thought I was hilarious, except the one that was just really confused to have seen me at one birth, then see me again at another one. In that case, I thought that she was hilarious. ;)

The room was absolutely silent. Six people and not one of us made a peep as Ashley took each wave with perfect grace. Even though she told me later that her body was screaming through all the silence, the best way I can describe her birth story is beautiful and even sacred.

The flutter sleeve is one of my absolute favorite sleeves, especially for summer. It's just so breezy and feminine. I first made them on my maternity dress when I was pregnant with Barrett and it really wasn't too tricky, so I'm excited to share this quick tutorial with you!
